Codal Lizard

Also known as the “Spitting Lizard” or more colloquially as simply a “Spitter,” Codal Lizards are native to the southern, swampy regions of Midonia and Valara. Often growing about a foot and a half in height and averaging 3 1/2 feet from end to end, the Codal Lizard is a large and slow-moving creature. It makes up for this, however, by spitting a highly corrosive glob of saliva at its prey. This projectile causes flesh to open and retards the formation of clots, allowing the Spitter to slowly follow the trail of blood that will eventually lead it to its kill that has died either of blood loss or infection from the open wound.
